"Ballad Poems are poems that tells a story similar to a folk tale or legend and often has a repeated refrain. A ballad is often about love and often sung. A ballad is a story in poetic form."
There are even Rock Ballads that have hit the Billboard charts over time. "DESPERADO" by the Eagles, "IMAGINE" by John Lennon, "DANIEL" by Elton John and "SOMEBODY TO LOVE" by Queen are just a few!
